I know you all will be surprised to know that there is no mention about Kaal Sarp Dosha in any of the ancient vedic or astrological texts. The first time it was ever talked about was in 1900’s by some astrologers. They just took out this idea because there is mention of Kaala Sarpa in Griha Sutra while doing Grah Poojan, it must have had something to do with Kaal Sarp Dosh.

What Exactly is Kaal Sarp Dosh according to pundits?

As per pundits when all planets are placed or hammed between Rahu and Ketu in the natal chart , Kaal Sarp Dosh is formed. I have even heard stories where some astrologers are of the view that Kaal Sarp Dosha ceases to exit after the age of 55.

Generally there are 12 types of Kaal Sarpa Dossiers

Some pundits are also of the view that is you see snakes in your dreams, you will certainly have Kaal Sarp Dosh and this Dosh needs a remedy almost instantly. ………… I DO NOT AGREE AT ALL.

Why Some astrologers have made this Dosha so dreaded or feared?

The reason is simple…… MONEY

Kaal Sarp Dosh Nivaran pooja is one of the most expensive poona and often not possible for most individuals to do it alone. There are certain places ( TRAMBAKESHWAR) where this Pooja is recommended doing and the MIND YOU … the pooja is expensive and not easily affordable, so pundits have another way of getting this done in Haridwar , Rishikesh and some more places now.

They charge between 31000 to 100000 Rs for this poona and often ale create a pendant with rahu and ketu’s gemstones to be worn in silver. These are also made by the astrologer you hire and might cost another 20000 to 30000 Rs.

Although astrologers claim that the pooja if done with proper devotion and proper way is very effective, I have not found any person till date who was totally happy.

An Interesting incident!!!!!!!!

About an year ago I was sitting in a conference with some renowned astrologers who were discussing about Kaal Sarp Dosha and how it affects lives.

Apart from me, everyone was of the view that Kaal Sarpa Dosha is the most dangerous dosha present and a person having this dosha can never achieve his goals.

I disagreed and gave them examples and here I present them before you.

Sachin Tendulkar has Kaal Sarp Dosh

Jwahar La Nehru has the same Dosha present in his horoscope

Saurav Ganguly has Kaal Sarp Dosh

Dhiru Bhai Ambani

Rajnikaanth

Chiranjeevi

Margaret Thatcher ( Former prime Minister UK)

Nelson Mandela

None of the astrologers present there had a word to speak, apart from one voice who said exceptions are always there, but he soon came to know he was contradicting himself so sat down.

Humble Request.

It is my request to all readers to please be logical in your approach, even if for one minute, we agree on kaal sarp dosha , we should go for remedies which are logical and would help in improving our karma’s.

Please note an astrologer can only direct your actions towards right things, he cannot predict, you bear the result of your karma’s.

Remedies for Rahu and Ketu

Feed ants with dry flour

Feed fish

Help people in getting justice

Never bribe

Om Chanting

Feed Cows

Never let your stomach get upset. This is the first thing you should do if Rahu gets malefic.

There are other remedies as well.

Remedies of doing poona can help but only if you do it yourself with full devotion. Helping living beings, and doing karmic remedies reap faster results and are more satisfying as well.

Jai Shri Krishna! Friends I was forced to write this article so that I can explain in detail about Manglik Dosha Cancellation and Manglik Dosh Remedies. I have had several queries everyday to check for Manglik dosh and in more than 80 percent of the cases, I have found that Manglik Dosh gets cancelled.

It has amazed me how so called pandits with half baked knowledge reject a match just because they see mangal sitting in Ascendant, 2nd house, 4th house, 7th house or 12th house.
I would request people to please choose the right astrologer who has knowledge about astrology rather that to find a pandit who just knows how to make a kundli. There is a lot more about Manal Dosh than just its placement in 5 houses. I’m sure you would agree.

Lets discuss the cases where Manglik Dosh or Kuja Dosh gets Cancelled.
1. If Mars is placed in its own signs (Aries or Scorpio) or if it is placed in the sign where it exalts(Capricorn) or in
houses occupied by signs of Sun, Jupiter or Moon, Manglik or Kuja Dosha ceases to exist.

2.If Mars or Mangal is in 2nd house in signs of Mercury ( Gemini or Virgo), manglik dosh has zilch effect.

3. For Aquarius ascendant, if Mars is found to be placed in 4th or 8th house, we consider this as Kuja Dosh cancellation.

5.Mars in 7th house in the signs of Cancer or Capricorn, reults in cancellation of Manglik dosh Kuja Dosh.

6.Mars in 8th house in signs of Jupiter( Sagitarius and Pisces) result in cncellation of Manglik or Kuja Dosh.

7.For Cancer and Leo Ascendants, Mars will never form a Manglik dosh doshdepite it being placed in any of the house.

8.Mars placed in 12th house for Libra or tauras ascendents, lead to cancellation of Mangal Dosh.

9. Mars conjunct with Jupiter or aspected by Jupiter leads to cancellation of Manglik Dosh.

10.Mars conjunct with Moon or aspected by Moon will result in cancellation of Manglik or Kuja Dosh.

11.Mars in conjunction with or aspected by Sun, Mercury, Rahu or Saturn result in no Manglik Dosh.

The mention of Kumbh is found in ancient Hindu Purana, the Bhagwat Purana. The story behind the start of Kumbh is that when demigods had lost all their powers to a curse given by Durvasa Muni, they approached Lord Shiva and Lord Brahma to find a solution to regain the lost power.
Lord Shiva and Lord Brahma directed all the Devtas to the Supreme Godhead, Lord Vishnu as he being the Supreme will be able to guide all. All Devtas offered prayers to Lord Vishnu which pleased the Supreme Godhead and Lord Vishnu appeared. Knowing everything as always, he instructed them to churn the Ocean of Milk Ksheera Sagar.
Lord Vishnu advised all the demigods to make peace with Demons as the only way to churn the milk ocean was when both demigods and demons worked together. As instructed, demigods called it truce with demons and worked together to churn the ocean of milk.
Vasuki, the biggest and serpents of all became the rope and Mandara Mountain became the churning rod. While Churning, the first thing that came out was poison which was consumed by Lord Shiva, there were other attractive things as well that came out but both demigods and demons had their eyes and focus struck on Amrit as this Amrit had the strength to make either Devtas or the Rakshas immortal.
When Amrit finally came out , a fight between Devtas and Rakshas began over the consumption of Amrit which went on for 12 days and 12 nights which is equal to 12 human years. Lord Vishnu who appeared as Mohini escaped with the pot of Amrit and while flying over the sky Amrit was spilled and dropped at four places, Allahbad, Haridwar, Ujjain and Nashik.

Significance of Bathing in Kumbh

As the belief goes, bathing during Kumbh grants salvation to the devotee. He is cured of all sins and evils. Another aspect to this is that in Prayag( Now Allahabad), the water of Sangam has positive healing effects. It is said that the Sangam water , at the time of Kumbh has greater electromagnetic radiations of Sun, Moon and Jupiter which vary by the positions of Moon. This is also one of the reasons when on some days Shahi Snan is observed. It is also said that bathin in Prayag( Sangam) at the time of Magh bestows results as good as performing millions of Ashvamedha Yajna.

Kumbh is the world’s biggest religious gathering and it is expected that in 2013 in Allahabad more than 100 million people will participate. Not only Hindus but people from all over the world come to bathe in the freezing water.
Celebrities like Amitabh Bachhan Shilpa Shetty, Catherine Zeta Jones, Akshay Kumar, Twinkle Khanna, Rajpal Yadav, Richard Gere, His Holiness, Dalai Lama are the ones who already have taken a dip at Kumbha.

Astrologically Who Should Go and bathe in Kumbha

People having kaal Sarpa Yog
People going through Sade Sati or Shani Dhaiya
People suffering from physical ailment
People who are emotionally disturbed

Horoscope matching or Kundli Milan is probably the most important thing in India while looking for the right partner( Now even in the west Kundli Milan is common) for marriage. Most families go to Panditji or astrologers for in depth analysis of horoscopes of both the boy and the girl. However most of these panditjis just do the Gun Milan and decide if the marriage will be successful or not. According to my experience this is not the correct way to match horoscopes.

In my experience I have found several cases where the marriage broke off even though more than 30 out of 36 points matched and I also know couples whose only 17 points matched and they have been living together for more than 10 years now.

It is important to check the gunas but it is all the more important to study both the horoscopes individually so as to check any dosh which should be considered while deciding the future of marriage or a relationship. If you get your horoscopes matched only as per the Gun Milan system then probably you are at risk.

Below I have mentioned all the points that I consider before deciding if a marriage, partnership or a relationship will be fruitful

Longevity Of Life: First of all longevity of the boy and girl should be checked carefully. If there is a noticeable difference, there is no further need to match the horoscopes.

Mentality: Both the horoscopes should show mental compatibility. If in one horoscope the main planet is Rahu and in the other the main planet is Mangal, such a horoscope might not be compatible even if Gun Milan system declares eligibility.( There can be more such factors)

Progency or ability to give birth to children: The horoscopes of both the boy and the girl should show promise for at least one child.

Health: Both boy and girl should show promise of good health and should not show any indication of a fatal disease or accident.

Separation Tendency: Nowadays it is found that boys and girls both have had a relationship so the best way to judge about this is to let them know if the first relationship or marriage would work out or not. This could be coz of Manglik Dosh or any Dosh but it needs an in depth analibysis considering all factors. There are some cases where none of the relationship or marriage will work out. This should be taken into consideration as well.

Prosperity: It should be checked if both the boy and the girl have a prosperous future individually. In Gun Milan Bhakoot Dosh is ignored many times and this can be fatal as far as money and relationship is concerned

This system has worked for me as I have been able to match several horoscopes and have also been able to pin point which won’t work.

To match horoscopes we need the Date of Birth, Time of Birth and Place of Birth of both the boy and the girl in question.

There are several myths that people have in their mind about being manglik. Let me first clarify that being a manglik would not mean that your marriage life would be disturbed or your partner may die. In fact in my research so far I have found that manglik people are the ones who more often than not are always more successful that those who are not.

Let us start by trying to understand who is a manglik. As per Vedic Astrology a horoscope has 12 houses and if in Planet Mars (Managal Grah) is placed in 1st,2nd,4th,7th,8th or 12th house, then the person is said to be manglik.

The colour of burning coal signifies Mars the planet and because of this several astrologers associate it with anger, cruelty etc. I have observed that many astrologers try to intimidate people if they are manglik and then try to shell money out of their pockets by recommending gemstones and other remedies.

Here are some interesting figures which are logical as well.

There are 12 houses in a horoscope and out of these 12 if Mars is placed in any of the 6 houses stated above the person suffers from ill effects of this planet. This means that there is a fair bit of chance that every second person who is born will have managal dosh in his horoscope and that his married life will be disturbed or their spouse will die. This means that 50 percent of the total population would be manglik and would have to face such consequences if they are not married to a manglik person. So, now let us assume that the 50 percent of the manglik population is married to mangliks and the remaining 50 percent is married to non- mangliks. If this happens according to many astrologers all those married to non-mangliks will either have a disturbed married life or their spouse will die.

According to me this can never be true. Infact, I have seen so many manglik and non-manglik couples who are happy and have also seen several cases where a manglik was not able to get along with a non manglik. Mangal grah or Mars provides energy and it is up to an individual to use the energy negatively or positively.

It has been found that Warriors, Sportspeople, Cops always have some affect of Mars or Mangal grah on them. At the same time people involved in terrorist activities or violence also have affect of Mars on them. It is more about channelizing energy in the right direction which makes a good or a bad person

Here is how Mars ( Mangal) behaves in different houses

1st House: In the first house mangal can make you short tempered but will also make you very energetic.

2nd House: In this case a person needs to control is speech. If loss occurs to him, it would be more or less because of the way he talks. He should never be sarcastic.

4th House: Rash driving should be avoided; property disputes should be sorted amicably. Never ever make your mother unhappy.

7th House: This house is said to be the house of life partner. A person who has Mars in this house should consciously avoid getting involved in petty matters. These people need some space and freedom and generally tend to get frustrated if the spouse asks too many questions. Give them space and all will be well. If you can learn the art of delegating authority, you will do very well.

8th House: Placement of Mars means that you will have to work very hard and the couple will have to make conscious efforts towards being healthy. Never forget the old adage- As you sow, so shall you reap. Health troubles are indicated but these can be taken care of if you take care of your health by doing regular exercises and maintaining a good diet. Over indulgence of food must be avoided. Must follow a disciplined lifestyle, come what may.

12th House: Placement of Mars in twelfth house could mean to make you impulsive which could result in loss or you could be defrauded. The solution to this would be to wait and analyse every situation and be sure that you are dealing with the right person.

( It is important to check one’s horoscope before concluding how Mars will effect him)

Many astrologers treat Mars in these houses as malefic while few of them know that Mars can be sometimes silent, at other times very positive and sometimes be negative. Mars behaving negatively is a very rare phenomenon. However even this case of Mars acting negatively can be cured using Mantras, Pujas and in rare cases with gemstones.

So, to conclude I would like to firmly state that Mars is a positive planet and in most cases it will help you grow mentally and monetarily as well. Most of the cricketers in India have strong Mars in their horoscopes. Most real estate big wigs have strong Mangal. Mars is seen to be negative only in one in a thousand cases.

If we go by the dictionary, Astrology is the study that interprets the influence of heavenly bodies on human life. This can be a very simple meaning of a very complex science. Astrology has several branches that a common man is unaware of like Prashna, Natal, Mundane, Medical Astrology etc.

Astrology is a belief, and although many people will say that they do not believe in stars and destiny, the truth is that over 90 percent of the population believes and even follows it. In India, as soon as a child is born, the first thing we do is to get the birth chart made from some astrologer who then recommends the alphabet from which the child’s name should start; such is our belief into this system.

Astrology is based on our Vedas and Shastras which have been existent ever since we have heard about life on earth. There are some scientists who question the authenticity of Astrology and regard this science as myth but the truth is that common man in spite of knowing all this chooses to believe in astrology and still visit astrologers. There is no other science in this world that can predict future so accurately other than Vedic Astrology. Even doctors and medical researchers believe in astrology as they all believe in destiny.

It is important for everyone to know that Astrology is not beyond GOD, if God wants, he can change anything and God himself preaches about the law of Karma so Astrology is one way or the other related to Karma. Astrology is a science that should only be used to give or get directions. If the time is good , you might get success very easily and if the time is moving against you, you may have to struggle before you get success.

With the help astrology one can understand the way he should work or in which direction he should work to attain set goals. Planets and zodiac signs can help in choosing the right path but working towards achieving your goals and aims will always be in your hands and that is why we say Astrology and the Karma philosophy gel together.

It is a fact that everyone works hard but not everyone is able to get the results as desired. This is something that we all notice but there is a great example that can describe why everyone cannot get the results they want. Let me ask you, if Sachin Tendulkar were to act in movies instead of playing cricket , would he be as famous as he is now? Or if Shah Rukh Khan were to be a doctor, would he be the superstar he is now? The obvious answer is NO. However, you still can’t undermine the fact that both these Indian heroes work extremely hard to be what they are, even now. It is important to understand that even if you have the best planetary combinations in the world and you choose to work against them, no one can stop you. Success or Failure is not what Astrology predicts, however Astrology can surely help in choosing the path you will take to be successful.
